AI Contract Overview
The Department of Veterans Affairs, through Network Contracting Office 10, intends to award a sole-source contract to Steris for preventive maintenance and repair services on Steris Automated Endoscope Reprocessors (AER) at the Detroit VA Medical Center. This action is justified under FAR 6.302-1(a)(2), as Steris is the sole factory-authorized supplier of parts and service for its equipment, including legacy brands such as Cantel/Medivators, and does not use distributors, making it the only responsible source capable of meeting the agency’s technical and operational requirements. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 811210 with a Small Business Administration size standard of $34.0 million, though no competitive solicitation will be issued unless a responding entity can provide clear and convincing evidence of comparable capability. Responses must be submitted via email to Jeannie Ortiz, the Contracting Officer, no later than May 13, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time; telephone inquiries or submissions are not accepted. The scope of work includes routine preventive maintenance and corrective repairs using only manufacturer-approved parts and procedures, with performance expected primarily at the Detroit VA facility, though other locations under NCO 10 jurisdiction may also be included. The notice explicitly states that no formal solicitation document exists, no evaluation factors or weights have been established, and no pricing, CLINs, or contract value details are available at this stage. Inspection and acceptance will be determined solely by the Government, aligned with Steris proprietary specifications, and no packaging, labeling, or preservation requirements are applicable since the requirement is service-based. The Contracting Officer is the sole point of contact, and no Contracting Officer’s Representative, Technical Representative, or payment office information is provided. Any offeror must demonstrate full capability to meet requirements, but the Government retains full discretion to proceed with the sole-source award regardless of submissions received.
